PELLA, Macedonia, Greece – The archaeological site in Pella has finally acquired a new museum covering an area of 6,000 square metres, which opened its doors to the public for the first time last week. Situated in the northeast corner of the site, near the contemporary town of Pella, the museum represents the culmination of efforts by archaeologists and local residents stretching back 40 years.

On display are archaeological artifacts found on the site, split up into five separate modules with different themes but not physically separated in closed galleries but visually connected with one another, with the exception of that devoted to grave artifacts found in cemeteries.
